Back again. A simple question on this NAS

[jordan12]

So I really just want one box that will handle my eight 8TB drives. I want to plug the box into my USB port and set up drivepool so I get one big drive.

Will this do that? Can I set it up and plug it into my USB port?

Why not just buy a $75 IBM M1015 HBA and put them in your comptuer/case if you're wanting DAS? If you need a new case.... $100-$200 + $75 for HBA is a LOT cheaper than running another system 24/7 let alone buying that expensive QNAP when you just want DAS and no NAS features.
